Reading the printed pages this morning. Helps me to see the whole before editing parts.

Each project needs its own process.

One of the most misunderstood - and misrepresented - concepts.

Good things are possible and we donโ€™t have to settle.

Courage is contagious. So is fear. Choose wisely.

As I write I discover what my story is about.

Friends, our story changes as we engage with it.

I shaved off 12 pages from part 1 of my manuscript. That feels like a win.

Ready to move to part 2.

May the words align for you!

The first few drafts of my first #memoir were complete rewrites. This time Iโ€™m reviewing what Iโ€™ve written as I go, considering how it fits into the whole story I want to tell.

Happy Friday!

My childhood #memoir may be the hardest story Iโ€™ll ever write, but Iโ€™m pushing through.

Happy almost-Friday, friends!

True. And sitting with the pain, discomfort, sadness eventually leads to the sweet reward of freedom.
